As far as the word 'cunt', while I am careful about throwing it around (as careful as a relentless prick like me can be), it is one of my favorite insults. It's most effective when directed towards a female, but one must exercise extreme caution: calling a woman a 'cunt' is like approaching Tazmanian devils with raw meat attached to your genitals. However, it also works surprisingly well when directed towards men -- the only terms I've found more insulting in my vast experience of insulting people are 'cocksucker' and 'assfucker', with 'assfucker' being the single most offensive thing you can call someone (and I've had quite a body of experience).

I was wondering if you used the "c" word in greater frequency since your stay in England. From the Brit and Scottish films I've seen, it seems like that one geezer ("regular guy" to the uninitiated) will call the other one a "stupid cunt."

Creepy, I have to ask: In the name of god, just what the hell have you been doing, approaching Tazzie Devils with raw meat attached to your genitals?

I'd like to know if famous persons from the older generation used the term (as it seems to offend them more). Can you imagine Marilyn parting the drapes and telling JFK "Lick my cunt, Jack" or perhaps the Queen, in bed with Prince Phillip: "One's cunt needs a big Greek cock in it NOW, my good man"...

Reminds me of the Monty Python travel agency bit witgh the guy who couldn't pronounce "c". It always came out "b". And the customer says, why don't you change the "c" to0 a "k" and all of a sudden he can say things like "kolor supplement." Realizing he could have been speaking properly all along, says "What a stupid bunt." OK, it was risque in the 70s.
